Okowa said the committee would ensure a free, fair and acceptable primary.

Okowa gave the assurance on Thursday in Asaba when former Senate President, Senator David Mark, paid a consultative visit to delegates to unveil his programmes if elected as the Presidential flag bearer of the party.

His words:  “As the Chairman of the Convention Planning Committee, I am expected to be neutral, we (members of the committee) have committed ourselves to organising a convention that will be free, fair, transparent and acceptable to all and we stand by our word.

“I will have no voting right on the day of the convention; I will have no friend because, we have undertaking to ensure there is a credible process.”

While stating that most of the Presidential aspirants had visited the state to canvass for votes, Governor Okowa observed that the party parades an array of credible people aspiring for the position.

Okowa said of Mark:  “He is a good Nigerian and a trusted PDP member; he is the kind of Nigerian that understands the whole situation and ready to help out. I believe there is a lot of capacity in him.”

Senator Mark had in his speech lauded the development stride of Governor Okowa’s administration, stating, “he served with me in the Senate, I know his potentials, I know he can still deliver, vote for him again in 2019.”

“I am here, based on my aspiration to be the next President of the country; I believe I have gathered enough experience; I know the problems of this country and they are self-inflicted; I have the capacity to tackle the problems of this country without fear or favour; when we change the government, the economy of this country will improve drastically. I believe in restructuring, I believe it can be done in phases,” he stated.
